Fault Estimation and Fault Tolerant Control Strategies Applied to VTOL Aerial Vehicles With Soft and Aggressive Actuator Faults
Actuator Fault Estimation (FE) and Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) strategies designed with model-based observers for Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aerial vehicles are proposed and validated experimentally in this paper.Three observers are considered for FE: a Baby Sleeping Bag nonlinear adaptive observer and a linear Proportional-Integral Obse
